It is RPM Fusion policy NOT to replace packages from Fedora.
We do not replace package, we replace library using the system dynamic linker.
In the general case:
What leaded to replacement library versus non-replacement package:
1/ It is always possible to have both packages installed.
2/ It is eventually possible to support a switch for which system wide
library to use
3/ if needed, the switch can be implemented from a given apps using
it's own LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
4/ etc
